    Abstract: A data storage device includes at least one data storage medium. The data storage device also includes a workload rating associated with data access operations carried out on the at least one data storage medium. The data storage device further includes a controller configured to enable performance of the data access operations, and change a rate of consumption of the workload rating by internal device management operations carried out in the data storage device in response to a change in a workload consumed by host commands serviced by the data storage device.

    Abstract: A method includes receiving a piece of data at an upper-layer server of a multi-tiered storage system comprising the upper-layer server and a block server, and determining a signature for the piece of data. A first bloom filter stored on the upper-layer server is a copy of a second bloom filter stored on the block server. The first bloom filter is checked for the signature. When a match is found in the first bloom filter, the piece of data is sent for storage at the block server, and it is verified at the block server whether a match is present for the piece of data. When a match is present, the piece of data is deduplicated. When a match is not present, the piece of data is stored. When a match is not found in the first bloom filter, the piece of data is stored in the block server.

    Abstract: A distributed data storage system can be configured with a host connected to a first device and an initialization module that performs a default initialization procedure on the first device in response to detecting the first device has an unknown manufacturing origin. Conducting the default initialization procedure may allow the first device to service data access requests from the host. In response to the connection of a second device to the host and initialization module, a manufacturing origin of the second device is identified with the initialization module before the initialization module customizes the default initialization procedure to a custom procedure that is executed to allow the second device to satisfy a background operation prescribed by the initialization module.

    Abstract: Apparatus and method for managing data in a processing system, such as but not limited to a data storage device such as a solid-state drive (SSD). A ferroelectric stack register memory has a first arrangement of ferroelectric memory cells (FMEs) of a first construction and a second arrangement of FMEs of a different, second construction arranged to provide respective cache lines for use by a controller, such as a programmable processor. A pointer mechanism is configured to provide pointers to point to each of the respective cache lines based on a time sequence of operation of the processor. Data sets can be migrated to the different arrangements by the controller as required based on the different operational characteristics of the respective FME constructions. The FMEs may be non-volatile and read-destructive. Refresh circuitry can be selectively enacted under different operational modes.
